The New York Story

0.0
February 28, 1954

A glamorous mother and wife who dallies with other men's attention takes her own husband and son for granted.

The climax in which the woman's mind races with impending terror about her son's lateness might seem melodramatic, but it's all too real for many of us who worry about loved ones. Mabel Albertson of "Bewitched" and so many other series plays the PTA spokesperson.
